Hi Jacque,

I suspect this is impossible, because Rev checks whether the file exists before launching it and assumes that the entire parameter is a reference to once file. It would be nice if this command took a return delimited file list or even multiple file parameters.

Thanks. Now I'm playing with "open process for write" but that isn't working either.

What I want to do is simulate dropping several files onto an app. I didn't write the receiving app, and it isn't appleScriptable. It is intended to be a droplet that can receive multiple files at once. I can use "launch <document> with <appname>" for a single document, which works fine, but I want to be able to send it multiple docs.

When I use "open process", I get a weird result:

open process "myApp" for binary write -- program launches and opens okay
write <filename> to process myApp -- "program is not open for write"

Huh? I'm also not sure whether I should be sending it the file path or the contents of the file, but I'm thinking the filepath is correct, since I'm trying to simulate a drop action.

Anyone know? How come it says the program isn't open for write, when I can see it sitting there open in front of me?
